I been  with virgin for over a 20 years. So far never had any issues.

My contract was cancelled with virgin on 28 feb midnight and the boardband  stopped working. 9 hours later I called and signed a new contract. 

My equipment is still plugged in and nothing changed in 9 hours.

I was told it should  be up and running  in 24/48 hours.

I got no broadband or tv. I get a message  connected but no Internet on mobile phone. Pc is connected via cable to router and has no Internet.

I did a complete reset  of router.I tried ping  and traceroute from  router interface and it doenst work. Router has been assigned the same ip as last time .  

Tech support  keeps asking  me to unplug snd replug cables. Check ethernet Interface..they are not listening to or don't understand  when I talk about ping or traceroute tools on  router not working.

Tv doesn't work either. Looks like the service has not been re-enabled. 

Last call to tech support lasted 45 minutes and she transfered me to disconnection  without telling me. Before that she was gonna transfer me to gadget team and change me 45 pounds. 

I am losing all hope  here.

Try the VM Activation Team on 0800 953 9500

Thanks for thr reply. I called and they are saying the same thing as the other team.

All your services are activated  and we don't know why it is not working.  An engineer visit is not needed and it will take day. Looks like this is the only option left.

Go to the Router Status page on the Hub.  What does the Provisioning State say ?

This might be an account problem rather than an equipment problem.

Normally VM won't let you have a new contract immediately after leaving, in order to stop existing customers getting new-customer deals.

My name is NOT Alessandro. That's just a tag Virginmedia sticks on some contributors. Please ignore it.

Could be.  I had to wait 90 days before coming back as a "new" customer.
